[QUOTE="Occasional_panner, post: 326952, member: 7956"] Mate I don't know if this will help you or confuse you. However since using conventional riffles and moss and converting to dream matt, I have found the dream matt clears so much more quickly, you can process way more material in the same time with the dream matt. So if you were previously happy with the performance of a 10inch conventional unit, then you'll be happy running an 8 inch dream matt. BUT when you compare a 10 inch dream matt to the performance of a 10inch conventional, the difference is marvelous and you can just chuck shovels at the bastard. So if you don't need to hump it long distances I would say get the bigger one, if going long distances or space is tight, then get the 8. My 3600gal bilge only just runs it on 12v, so I feed the bilge with 14v via 2 batteries in series from a speed controller, but ideally, a bilge should only be for a 8 inch unit. I personally would like an 8 and a 12, so you could do plenty when needed and have an 8 when humping distances, but if you don't think you'll use it a lot an 8 will still do the job and process a lot of material.
